Performance and Compute

Running on 6,144 shader cores, the card delivers 30.9 TFLOPS of FP32 compute power for demanding applications. Its boost clock reaches 2,512 MHz alongside a 2,330 MHz base clock, providing reliable frame rates during extended gaming sessions.

The 48 MB last-level cache helps reduce memory latency by storing frequently accessed data closer to the processor. This combination suits users upgrading from older generations who want smooth visuals without stepping up to higher-tier pricing.

Memory and Speed

Equipped with 12 GB of video memory using the GDDR7 type, the card handles high-resolution textures efficiently. The 192-bit memory bus width and 28 Gbps memory speed combine for a memory bandwidth of 672 GB/s.

This high bandwidth allows the GPU to stream assets quickly, preventing stuttering in open-world games and heavy creative workloads.

Power and Physical Fit

The board power is rated at 250 W, requiring a recommended PSU of 650 W when paired with a Ryzen 9 9950X, though other systems may need a different PSU. It uses a single 16-pin 12V-2x6 socket for power, and an adapter for two 8-pin cables comes in the box.

Measuring 242 mm in length and 112 mm in height, the reference card occupies 2 slots. This compact footprint fits comfortably into most standard mid-tower cases.

Display and Video Features

For connectivity, the card includes one HDMI 2.1b port and three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs running at the full UHBR20 rate, supporting up to 4 displays simultaneously. PCIe 5.0 across 16 lanes ensures maximum bandwidth with compatible motherboards.

Creators benefit from a hardware encode engine supporting H.264, HEVC, and AV1 formats across 1 encoder, making local streaming and video exports faster.
